I like it, but I think that you should make some sort of convention for redlinks. Seeing as there's no page there, it should link to a generic 'nothing here' page or something of the sort.
On a static dump such links aren't really very useful: they don't go anywhere, and you can't do anything once you've got there. So they're just silently dropped.
They aren't useful as links, but sometimes people do imbue wikilinks with some semantic meaning, most often an implied "note that this word is being used in a technical sense rather than colloquially". So the article might read a bit strangely if the link is dropped. Of course, whether this happens often enough to outweigh the strangeness of having useless links in an article is another matter...
